Create A WordPress Website On Your Own PC or Mac Using Local

In this video, I show you how to create a WordPress Website on your own PC, Mac or Linux Computer. It is completely free and you can even go live with your website. You can add multiple websites on your computer, make those websites secure, change the extension of the domain, use the dark interface and work on your website while being offline.

You can also install a WordPress website, adjust it to your wishes and use it as a blueprint for other websites you want to make using Local. That will save you a lot of time and I will show you how to do that.

I think Local is the best tool to host your own WordPress website on your computer, play around with WordPress, try new WordPress plugins and work on projects when you are offline.

Just ran across this video. THANK I've been trying to figure out the best way to deploy a website to Local so that someone else could view it and then upload the entire site somewhere else. This covered it all!

Now if I could only find someone who had a clear step-by-step video on how to take a prototype design from Adobe XD and build it in Elementor. You wouldn't happen to know anyone like that would you...?🙃🙃🙃

Thanks again so much! You were the person who actually got me going on Elementor several years ago when I needed to build a website in a hurry and had no idea what I was doing.❤

Bro you are amazing, love you. This is such a valuable process for web designer like me. As we need to worry about domain and hosting even for testing Wordpress and its plugin. But this could help me a lot for trying Wordpress and creating client website locally and then transferring online.
